The FWD coupe had its heyday back in the 90's, but there have been some good looking secretaries cars. What are the best looking fwd coupes?

The Fulvia is the only one and thats because it doesn’t look FWD.

I completely and utterly agree with you, especially with the aero package and the phone dial alloys.

Ew. The wheels are good, the rest looks like several cars dogpiled each other.

The era to which you are actually referring, I’ve been on a 3rd gen Prelude kick lately:

Anything with RWD proportions has a chance.

Yep, that Prelude might be the best-looking Honda ever IMO. I wish the S2000 had been visually designed in the 80s :\

I’ll go with the Brera instead. I’ve never driven one, but I read they were awful in every single way. But dat ass...

Much better. It has some awkward and WTF lines, but they at least look like they came from the same car.

It was one of Chris Bangles early designs if that add to it.

How is this even a question?

The 2nd Gen Mitsubishi Eclipse is an easy winner. It doesn’t even look FWD.

It looks much better in real life from this angle. Also this answer is approximately 72.4% biased.

P.S. This is the most stock Integra I can find on google that’s not a type-R.

*flame suit on*

I actually prefer the design of the 4th gen Eclipse to all of its predecessors, especially with the GTR-style grill.

Kinja'd!!!

Then again, the Gen 4 concept was one of my first hotwheels cars, so I might be a bit biased...

1st gen was decent for the era, 3rd gen was hideous, and the 4th was pretty good looking (although I feel it suffered from the 00s high sloping beltlines and they were pretty terrible in many of the same ways as the 3rd gen).

I’ll admit that they were decent looking, but I stand by my position that the 2nd gen was the best.
